Duluth Leather Ottoman

Yes. Unlike lighter decorative poufs, this ottoman is built on a solid wood base with sturdy tapered legs, providing the structural integrity needed for occasional seating. The 24" x 24" square surface provides a stable and comfortable area for guests, while the welted seams help the cushion maintain its shape even with regular use in a high-traffic family room.

Based on our expertise with high-quality leather, regular maintenance is the key to longevity. We recommend vacuuming the ottoman weekly with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris that can abrade the hide. For cleaning, simply use a soft rag dampened with warm water and a mild, non-detergent soap. Always avoid harsh chemicals or alcohol-based cleaners, which can strip the natural oils and lead to cracking.

This ottoman is an excellent solution for urban apartment living where floor space is at a premium. Its compact 24-inch footprint allows it to fit comfortably in tight layouts without blocking traffic flow. Because it functions as a footrest, an extra chair, and—when paired with a decorative tray—a coffee table, it provides the triple-functionality essential for maximizing utility in smaller footprints.

With a height of 19 inches, this ottoman is designed to align perfectly with most contemporary sofas, including the matching Duluth collection. Our research into living room ergonomics suggests that a footrest should be equal to or slightly lower than your sofa's seat cushions to ensure optimal comfort and circulation. This height also makes it a practical, chair-height option for use as a spare seat.

This piece features top-grain leather where the body touches, which is the highest quality part of the hide. Top-grain leather is prized for its exceptional durability and its ability to develop a beautiful patina over time. It is naturally more resistant to the wear and tear of family life—including pet hair and minor spills—compared to fabric alternatives. The sides and back are upholstered in color-matched polyurethane to provide a sophisticated leather look with added cost-efficiency.

While the top is upholstered for comfort, the square shape and firm cushioning make it a versatile coffee table alternative. To ensure a completely stable surface for drinks or vases, we recommend placing a large decorative tray on top. This creates a flat, hard surface while still allowing you to quickly clear the area when you want to use the piece as a footrest.
